With the recent military defeat of Daesh, the group has lost grip on its Caliphate. What remains, however, is the ideological appeal of joining its cause. In this vein, Preventing/Countering Violent Extremism efforts must be reassessed and restructured to address needs related to countering the ideology and discourse of violent extremist groups and promoting a new alternative narrative.
This paper centres on these emerging needs with a focus on counter- and alternative narratives. It seeks to move away from the current tradition of typifying counter- or alternative narratives towards a thorough analysis of actual media messages produced in the West Asia-North Africa region. It follows through a critique and analysis of this media content, produced locally and in the region, to assess the strengths and weaknesses of existing attempts of managing radicalisation in Jordan.
